Sullivan's Giant Robot Room
Small Kids, Big Color Entry # 46


thumbs up

Name: Sullivan
Age: 8
Location: Castaic, California

Color Inspiration: My son's favorite color is blue and I love the color orange so those are the colors I chose to decorate his room.

Give Jenn & Sullivan a THUMBS UP if you think this room belongs in the finals!

Tip For Using Color: Use your favorite color on one wall and then cut that color by a third for the other walls for a soft transition.


Colors Used: The wall with the giant robot sticker is the color Birds Egg Blue by Benjamin Moore and the other 3 walls are the same color cut down by a third. Home Depot laid the cork floors and I layed a Flokati round rug for softness.

Where did you get the robot sticker made? Was it an original design that you had turned into a sticker or is there a place anyone could purchase the giant robot?

Thanks!!!

The sticker is from Weego Baby and the Lamp is from The Land of Nod. The sticker is vinyl. It took my husband and I two hours to put that guy on the wall!

Love the graphic punch of the pillows and simple bedding, plus the circular rug. Nice and simple is how I like it!

Great room Sully! Looks a lot like mine, minus the robot and the cool colors.

I love all the colors in contrast to the carpet. Very cool. What kid wouldn't want a giant robot on his wall?! I also love the big polka dot pillows in combination with the other bedding fabric. Great job on the room!
